Which of the following is always the result when a centripetal force is applied?

Out of the given options, gravitational pull is always the result when a centripetal force is applied.

Explanation:

While studying the curvilinear motion, there are two types of forces seen to be exerted on an object- Centripetal and the centrifugal force. The centripetal force defined as the acting force on an object moving on a circular paths that directs the object towards the centre of the curvature or the axis of rotation.

The centripetal forces are orthogonal to the direction of motion and tends towards the circular path's center. While moving in circular path, an object may have a constant acceleration but it consistently changes its direction.

Means, there is always an acceleration which tends the object towards the centre of the path. This acceleration is known as the “Centripetal Acceleration”.

According to Newton second law for motion, Centripetal force can be formulated as,

Where,

m - Mass of an object

v - Tangential velocity

r - Radius of the curvature or the circular path from the centre

Hence, it’s clear that a centripetal acceleration is always present in case of centripetal force.
